There is something strange here. We see shots of Don and Nick in a cab somewhere in Japan (I guess) but when we see the driver something is wrong. If he is a taxi driver, he would be the first one I have ever seen on many trips to Japan who is not wearing white gloves while driving. It is just something taxi drivers do. (Also note in description of possible roadblock, it says "donning gloves and hats" they take the part of taxi drivers in Osaka.

In the central areas of the city, you will never have any trouble finding a taxi. They line the main street, Midosuji, 24-hours a day, waiting for passengers. In fact, the Osaka Municipal Transport Bureau concedes that Osaka has 30,000 more taxis than required. Now that`s a lot of vehicles. Bear in mind the fare - expect about 2000 yen for a ten minute trip. It is easy to find a taxi in Osaka. In fact, there is a long queau of taxi in front of the JR Station opposite Hilton Hotel and Hanshin Department Store. If you are in the downtown area like Umeda Skyline, you will have no problem taking a taxi. Taxi drivers, can be very crazy in japan. The streets are much smaller than the US and they do drive fast! Oh and don't try to stiff your driver. they'll prevent you grom getting out of the vehicle (The doors have no indoor handles)

I'll add this little dude found at a different picture source and he comes with a sad story thanks to Slowhatch ~ Statues with Red Clothing:

Visitors to the many Japanese temples will find a quiet, secluded area where there is a shrine to children who have died as infants. The parents either decorate the one large statue with some type of red clothing to help send the infant's soul on to the next level of being or can have a small statue placed into the temple on a personal level and decorate that statue. In addition to the red clothing, there may be flowers, glasses of water, or some personal article that is meaningful to the parent for the child.
